The 2008 Awards



The Company Women of the Year Awards 2008, sponsored by ABACO Legal & Tax.
Company Women announced the plans for the 2008 awards at their third year anniversary lunch on 5th June.
Local legal and tax experts ABACO are supporting Company Women as lead sponsor of the only awards for businesswomen held in the region. 85% of ABACO's workforce are female, so it will come as no surprise that they are supporting female entrepreneurs. Their talented, multi-lingual team of Lawyers and Legal Executives work in three offices throughout the region (Torrevieja, Alicante and Vera).
There are Five Award Categories this year!
The Bright Idea Award for Innovation
For women that have had a great idea and implemented it. A pioneer, broken new ground, spotted a gap in the market and led the way with their creative
idea.

As well as the title, the overall winner will also win a year's worth of hairdressing from Torrevieja's leading hair salon, Hair OTT. Yes, that's a trip to the hairdressers every 6 weeks for a cut and colour, totally free of charge for a year! Natasha Moon, Owner of Hair OTT and Company Women member commented, "Being well groomed is essential for today's businesswoman.

Anything we can do to help the overall winner look and feel her best throughout her 12 month reign, is something we're honoured to do!"
